Deadpool has been causing a lot of buzz lately for obvious reasons. Reasons may vary such as the color red is fashionably trendy right now or maybe, he reminds us that a little asinine behavior and humor is something we need to get past our daily lives. The most obvious reason being is that there’s a new movie coming out (finally!). We’re guessing everyone has a Deadpool shirt, bag, jacket, keychains and the mandatory Ryan Reynolds poster at the back of our closets. Aside from the usual Deadpool merchandise, here’s a list of essential collectibles that any Deadpool fan must have.


 

FUNKO MARVEL: DEADPOOL (all variants)

WHY: Funko figures definitely catches the cute side of any character they make. Aside from it being obtainable easily as it is sold by almost all toy and comics retailer, it is fairly cheap compared to other things in this article. Besides, everyone should buy atleast one bobble-head in his lifetime — why not it be Deadpool.

 

MARVEL SELECT: DEADPOOL

WHY: This 7 inch of awesome comes with a sculpted base, 2 sais, 2 katanas, 2 handguns and a machine gun. It is one of the most articulated figure in all of Marvel: Select series and it also has plentiful of accessories. This figure hard to come-by now and costs a little more than your standard action figure.

 

MARVEL UNIVERSE SDCC EXCLUSIVE: DEADPOOL CORPS TACO TRUCK SET

WHY: Uhmmm. Errrrr… Family? On a serious note, you can’t go wrong in getting this set. The packaging alone would make you want it. The figures and their respective accessories are packed inside an illustrated cardboard taco (warning: not edible). The set includes Deadpool (of course), Lady Deadpool, Kidpool, Champion of the Universe-pool, Dogpool and Squirrelpool with all their respective accessories. Now, this set is hard to get unopened and can come with a pretty hefty price but having a Squirrelpool makes it all worth it.

 

MARVEL LEGENDS: DEADPOOL (SERIES 6)

Marvel-Legends-Deadpool

WHY: This is the most articulated Deadpool you can get. One of the most proportioned and color-accurate Deadpool action figure one can buy. It comes with an unmasked Deadpool head, a stand and Doop. If you see a Deadpool meme wherein a toy was used, they used a Marvel Legend figure for that. Here’s the deal, you better be living a clean life for you to get one of these still inside a packaging because an arm and a leg won’t be enough to buy one of these. This is a collector’s item and it will take a few calls and hours of searching just to find one.

 

HOT TOYS: DEADPOOL 1:6 SCALE FIGURE

WHY: Why not? Figures from Hot Toys series are top-notch and full of realism. You’d swear that it’s Ryan Reynolds in a suit but the photos explicitly say it is a figure. Still not believing it? Here’s a pic of Ryan Reynolds playing with himself.

As of the time of writing this, this hasn’t been released yet. I guess we have time to save up and keep our kidneys and livers healthy.
